Carrie Underwood is gearing up to perform at President-elect Donald Trump's swearing-in ceremony. Throughout her 20-year career, the "All-American Girl" crooner has mostly avoided voicing her political opinions. But the former "American Idol" winner expressed her love for the United States when she agreed to perform at the momentous occasion.

Before being sworn into office in 2017, Trump hosted a concert at the Lincoln Memorial featuring performances by Toby Keith, Lee Greenwood and 3 Doors Down. "I don't apologize for performing for our country or military," Keith said at the time.
